Jackknifed

My strife

Take it easy

Sit outside

I just died one thousand times yesterday



Lay down

Drown out

Drowning in these cries and shouts

Changing so fast that it stays the same



Encryption ensconces this cryptic cliché

It's not stupid

It's more of the same

I'm too tired to care

We're too busy to think

Sit back and laugh and watch the ship sink

The hull and the bow and the smokestacks disappeared 

And we watched ‘em down 

With a streaming Bronx cheer

Thank you dear

I will sleep and get up and eat unaware



So don't forget to forget you forgot me

When I show up at your door 

I'm gonna remember that you are my friend 

And fall asleep on your floor



Winter is coming

Can you find your coat? 

Let's go watch the water while the bodies still float

Slit my throat

It's more than a tad overdue 

Slit my throat

I can't die in here 'til next June

I breathed it, it was smokey

I cried it, it steamed

I dreamed that I slept and I actually dreamed



What it is, is a sickness

What it is, is regret

And I might be dying

But I'm not dead yet



So don't forget to forget you forgot me

When I show up at your door 

I'm gonna remember that you are my friend 

And fall asleep on your floor



Winter is coming

Can you find your coat? 

Let's go watch the water while the bodies still float

Slit my throat

It's more than a tad overdue 

Slit my throat

I can't die in here 'til next June

I breathed it, it was smokey

I cried it, it steamed

So don't forget to forget you forgot me

When I show up at your door 

I'm gonna remember that you are my friend 

And fall asleep on your floor



Yeah I'm gonna remember that you are my friend

And fall asleep on your floor
